The Passion: The Agony in the Garden

Hendrick Goltzius

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black and white drawing of a biblical scene. The scene shows Jesus Christ sitting on the ground, praying with his head resting on his hand, wearing a long robe. Two men, likely apostles, are nearby; one sleeps, and the other sits awake, resting on an elbow. In the background, an angel appears to a man on a hill. The sky has clouds, and there are trees, rocks, and a building in the distance. A wooden fence is on the right side. The drawing style is detailed with shading and texture. The image is titled "The Passion: The Agony in the Garden" by Hendrick Goltzius.
